I LOVE kooldock. Thanks. I use it for all me clients, especially those with special needs and/or visual impairments and kids, who think it's "space stuff" like Star Trek. It's a God send and an incredibly useful tool. Thank you so much! Kate

Wiki import did not import files?
by Michael 11 Jan '21

11 Jan '21

Somewhat a guess, but when the wiki was moved, did the files not get moved at the same time? https://wiki.trinitydesktop.org/index.php?title=Category:Pages_with_broken_… I was looking at https://wiki.trinitydesktop.org/Kmail_Sanitize_and_Decrypt_Mails and noticed the file Kmail-decrypt-and-sanitise-mail.gz isn’t there anymore. If you were an author of one of these: DevelopmentSpecificationsKCMLDAPController Java Integration (KDE3 Architecture) Kmail Sanitize and Decrypt Mails KMDI Tutorial Sample Applications and you still have the missing files, would you re-upload them? Best all, Michael

linux and TDE on a chromebook
by James D Freels 10 Jan '21

10 Jan '21

All: I was surprised to see that a chromebook-related thread has not appeared on TDE forum since 2014. Well, that is changing NOW ! I have a new Lenovo Flex 5 chromebook and recently purchased from COSTCO (at very good price and support BTW). It provides Linux support (albeit beta) out of the box, and it is nice. BTW, chromebooks are very nice and inexpensive for lots of things, but Linux support is relatively new. So, yes, the Linux CLI is out of the box, and you can gain ssh connection with a bit of work. It is running Debian/Buster too BTW out of the box if you are like me and a Debian user. The next step I tried was to install TDE into it following the TDE instructions. Too much of a gamble. So, I at least interfaced the normal Debian sources.list, and then tried to install xfce4, and that broke it. It is easy to start all over since it is a VM anyway within chromeos. So, backing up a bit since I hit it pretty hard the first time. Has anyone in this forum tried installing TDE and got it to work on a Linux VM under chromeos (chromebook) ? Just thought I would ask. Afterall, chromebooks are selling quite readily now, and being used worldwide. James D. Freels, Ph.D., P.E. freelsjd(a)gmail.com 865-457-6742 (landline) 865-919-0320 (cell)

Trinity Trouble - Konqueror?
by Edward 09 Jan '21

09 Jan '21

Hi everyone. Unfortunately, I was forced to remove my installation of Trinity/PCLinuxOS this morning, due to Firefox and Thunderbird not working correctly. Specifically, Firefox was repeatedly asking to be the default browser, even as I previously selected it as the default. And Thunderbird, in the middle of all this, would no longer open links at all, deciding to automatically add a new 'account' relating to news and feeds. Both Vivaldi and Chromium were also installed as browsers, but once both of these were removed, Firefox and Thunderbird continued to exhibit the same behavior. Upon installing first Trinity/Ubuntu 20.04.1 and then Lubuntu 20.04 LTS, I was unable to get HPLIP (as hp-setup) with either OS to communicate with my HP printer, which was USB-connected. Final attempt, was to install Debian (10, LXQt). Fortunately, this was able to detect the printer using hp-setup, however neither hp-systray nor the HPLIP Toolbox (GUI) will launch. I am extremely hesitant to install Trinity on top of this Debian installation, because I am afraid that with Konqueror included as the default file manager, I will have the same issues with Firefox and Thunderbird. I suspect that something with PCLOS may have changed, causing it to detect both Firefox and Konqueror as web browsers, instead of a web browser and a file manager. I don't know. I have been fiddling with this for the past seven hours now. I just want it to work. Thanks in advance for any advice/suggestions/etc.

This is my main reason for problems encountered with online weather pages, and with weather apps on my smartphone. If I am asking what's the weather, then they already know the location close enough for my own information. The weather is about the same if it is in the same city. But no, they want to know my precise real location, as I sit here at my desk, even if I am wondering what is the weather like in London or Moscow. Is it a matter of national security, to know this about me? It would be nice to be able to torify TDE apps. :-[ Bill -------------------------------------------------------
